    and this is why you should always be very careful about letting someone else be in charge of your data

    And Justin Wilt won a Better World membership! Congrats to both Justin and Mikey!

    But how can it truly be a Better World without a year’s supply of toilet paper? Guess I’ll find out and let y’all know!

    I did just check though and, like Shawn, my July 1 and July 2 rides have shown up.

    Someone advise if this ceases to be the case!

    I didn’t have a chance to ride yesterday, but I did today, and that ride is not there.:(😡

    Mine quit syncing this evening. Guess I’ll have to go back to running both apps.

    Same here. Tue am ride went in but not Tue evening.

    Oh dear Dog, what did I do to the world to be sentenced to 6 months of hard time in “Endo”? ;) Looks like the bucket dump every few days is the method for now.

    If you don’t mind entering milege daily, manual entries are incredibly easy with endo. I just do Strava, then enter the daily number on endo. It takes about 2 secs. Go to your home page on NBC, click on “log miles.”

    To be fair here, users haven’t lost any data or the ability to extract their data from Strava. They just have lost the ability to have their data automatically synchronized from/to Strava (and potentially other third-party Strava supplement software). Of course, I do think Strava’s decision to limit the third-party tools that can be built around their data is unfortunate.

    You can also Garmin sync on the Endomondo site. It’s only a couple of mouse clicks and you’re done. You don’t have to name your ride(s) either. I don’t find it any more onerous than Strava or RidewithGPS.

    It appears they’ve just decided that they want to severely limit third-party access to Strava data.

    Pretty much; I wasn’t impressed with the email when I opened my inbox either.

    As of today, you will achieve:

    bronze if you have 42 points
    silver if you have 104 points
    gold if you have 311 points
    platinum if you have 1036 points
    diamond if you have 2073 points

    Obviously this is predicated on the fact that you continue to ride at the same frequency/distance as you do now.

    Guys,

    It appears last year’s requirement to log you miles during the month you rode them is no longer. Just loaded a bogus ride for a day I didn’t ride in mid June and the points and leaderboard reflected these miles (I did go back and delete the bogus ride after the test).

    Go figure. Way cool.
